Abstract

This paper concerns methods used for the load calibration of all types of testing machines, with comments of the suitability and accuracy of the various means available for this purpose. A brief description is given of standard types of equipment and of a new design of Loop Dynamometer. Special reference is made to the Amsler Standardising Box, and results are recorded of extended investigations which have enabled a great improvement to be made in the accuracy of this instrument.
